Vicious Biscuit
1121 Military Cutoff Rd, Wilmington, NC
Crema's Take
“Vicious Biscuit is a spirited breakfast spot where the biscuits are genuinely exceptional—golden, flaky, and generously stuffed with everything from chicken to sausage gravy—but it's really the unexpected extras like their legendary jam bar and honey butter that have people lining out the door with genuine joy. The staff here actually takes time to guide you through the menu like they care, the pastries and beignets are treated with real craftsmanship, and there's a playful, welcoming energy that makes it feel less like a transaction and more like being let in on something special.”

The jam bar. Oh my god. Items just so good. ALL of them. So good. And the honey butter???? Yes. The cashier was so nice, explaining the menu and giving suggestions, as if he had all the time in the world. We had two of their biscuit sandwiches and an extra biscuit as a conduit for jam. Everything came out hot, fresh, and the person who brought our food literally said yell out for him if we needed anything. Really great place, great people and great food.
While traveling, we decided to stop here because the menu looked delicious. There was a line out the door, and we noticed their hilarious “house rules” guide posted out front it promised the line moved fast… but it really didn’t. After ordering and finding a table, it took over 20 minutes for our food to arrive. I ordered the Vicious Biscuit, which was delicious, though I personally wished it had more gravy. My husband got the Hen Solo it was simple, good, and nothing too fancy. We also shared the beignets, which were fresh and tasty. Overall, we’d come back, but next time I’d probably order to go before arriving since those meals seemed to come out much faster.
A+++ Food and service were outstanding here. The biscuits are huge, flaky, perfectly cooked. I got a biscuit with chicken and it was so juicy and delicious, others got the biscuit with sausage gravy and pancakes. You cannot go wrong here. When we walked in (a weekday morning), the person at the counter was so helpful with her descriptions. We all got breakfast plus additional biscuits to enjoy with the jam and butter bar. If you enjoy fresh, hot biscuits— don’t hesitate!
This was our first visit here and the staff walked us through the menu and answered all our questions. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was advice and beyond. We definitely plan on coming back soon.
Oh. My. Goodness! We love breakfast/brunch food in general so we were excited to try this place. THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The biscuit sandwiches were awesome. The beignets, however, were heavenly. 😇 The line gets a little long because the place is so hopping, but it moves fairly quickly. Would absolutely recommend.
